Personal bio

Architect LLM MArch FCIArb FDBF
CEDR Accredited Mediator
Delay Expert, Dispute Board Member, Arbitrator

My work as Expert Witness in Arbitration was recognised with a Client Choice award in 2024.

I am a dual British-German citizen and a registered Architect in UK and Germany. I am an internationally recognized delay expert, with more than 35 years of experience in the international construction industry, and expertise in complex buildings, power and process plants, and major infrastructure projects. I am regularly appointed as an independent expert on complex and high-value disputes and I have given expert written and oral evidence in International Arbitration on forensic delay and FIDIC contract administration issues. I am an accredited dispute board member, accredited mediator, and a practicing arbitrator. I am a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, a Fellow of the Dispute Board Federation, a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Arbitrators, and a Freeman of the City of London.
